LEAP Accounts
LEAP Accounts extends LEAP case management with the financial control that larger and multi-office firms need. A combined client and office ledger, reporting by branch and cost centre, a full purchase ledger, approval chains on every payment, and dashboards that show where the firm stands today.
Stop opening two ledgers to answer one question. The combined matter ledger puts client and office positions side by side with running balances, so anyone looking at a matter can see exactly where the money sits and what is owed.
Assign matters to a branch and report on each office separately while keeping one firm-wide picture. Cost centres add a further layer, more granular than matter type or department, so you can see what each part of the practice actually earns and what it costs to run.
Raise an outlay tied directly to the purchase ledger and track its status without leaving the matter. Post nominal disbursements such as postage or search fees straight to a nominal account, so costs land in the right place first time.
When payment arrives, apply the receipt against specific parts of the invoice, including outlays and VAT, so reconciliation never needs unpicking later.

Multi-level approvals, notifications and an audit trail on every financial authorisation. Set permissions so only the people who should be processing and viewing client money can do either, and map the approval chain your firm actually uses rather than the one the software assumes.
Interactive dashboards built per user. Fee earners see their own work in progress, outstanding bills and targets. Partners and finance managers see the whole business, by department and by branch. Interest calculates automatically at firm or matter level, fixed or variable, with the reporting behind it to back it up.

LEAP Accounts runs on the same client and office accounting as LEAP, designed to support compliance with the Solicitors Accounts Regulations. Client and office moneys stay separate, every entry is time-stamped and traceable, and the compliance reports your reporting accountant needs are a click away.
